I did feel a little bit rushed, but we came late to our reservation so I did understand. The pistachio lava cake was not terrific. It was not that moist and the lava part of it was not flowing.

Had a nice time overall at this Italian spot. We started with the calamari and Brussels sprouts…read more The calamari was a bit underwhelming--lacking in flavor and seasoning. However, the Brussels sprouts were a highlight: nicely crisped and well-seasoned. For the main course, I had the veal piccata, which comes à la carte, so I ordered a side of linguini. The veal was excellent--tender and flavorful with a lemony sauce. The linguini was just okay, nothing particularly memorable. We also tried the lobster pasta, which was a standout--rich, flavorful, and well-balanced. All in all, a pleasant dining experience with a few strong dishes. Would return, especially for the veal and lobster pasta.

We came during off season, so I understand not being fully staffed. However, there were only 3…read moretables with guests during our visit and it took 2.5 hours from the time we were seated until the time we paid our bill. Most of this time was spent waiting on the one server to circle back to us. She was a friendly and pleasant waitress, but does not have the skill to juggle tables effectively. The food was tasty. I loved the featured salad. Unfortunately they don't allow you to share entrees, which I find very odd. For an Italian restaurant, not being able to order for the table is a strange limitation. Also $30 for gnocchi is kind of crazy. The restaurant has a nice vibe. I'm sure it's lively and fun during the summer. Off season, it feels overpriced and not attentive enough to return. We also waited 20 minutes to pay our bill before we saw a "pay on your phone" option under the folded section. We then paid and left. Overall a really unfortunate experience.

Not a huge deal but might be for others? Main issue that ruined the experience completely for us was the extremely obnoxious family that was sitting next to us. They said they are regulars and always sit in the outside corner by the shark. Very sweet and good kids twin boys and a girl. The kids were not the issue it was the two women who were extremely loud and obnoxious. No self or special awareness for the rest of the restaurant. Understandable that they are used to the corner themselves as "regulars" but in that case we should not have been seated 2 feet away from them when there were other open tables. They seemed like they were going to be leaving soon when we sat down so we didn't ask to move tables but they were there for our entire meal and proceeded to be passive aggressive to us when they left because they could tell we were uncomfortable and could barely even have our own conversation because they were practically screaming. Super rude and off putting. Sad that the other guests ruined the experience for us as it was very nice and pleasant after they left. Thanks for a great meal and the server was so great but sorry other guests caused a bad review :(

Somewhat confusing menu. Is it seafood? Italian, Asian? I opted for sea bass, which was pretty good, clearly done in Terriyaki sauce, but the addition of sun dried tomatoes seemed rather odd. Scallions would have been the better addition. I would not go back. Attention to detail was definitely missing
